Let me say that I have no issue at all complying with any of these rules, they just seem like common sense. These are common CG rules AFAIK.
I'm not sure if this is what CG owners are dealing with these days or if I'm going to hear banjos playing near my site after dark. At least 6 instances of "we will evict you with no refunds given" and not a single "thank you for your business"....
Am I headed to the redneck oasis or is this just the state of RVing in 2022?
